A true natural gem of the Estérel massif, the Calanque of Saint-Barthélemy stands out for its uniqueness. Unlike the white limestone calanques of Marseille, this one is formed from rhyolite, a red volcanic rock that creates striking, vibrant landscapes. Beneath the surface, you may encounter moray eels, octopuses, seabream, and starfish, among many other species. With such rich marine life, it is the perfect setting to discover scuba diving in Saint-Raphaël.

During your first dive from the Calanque of Saint-Barthélemy, you will be accompanied by your instructor from start to finish. High-quality equipment will be provided, and the 20-minute immersion is carried out one-to-one with the instructor to ensure a safe and personalised experience. Depending on your preference, you can dive to a depth of up to 6 metres, exploring underwater scenery that would otherwise remain inaccessible. Alongside the beauty of the marine world, this experience also introduces you to the unique sensations of weightlessness and deep calm of scuba diving.
